Palin's Alaskan rally draws 2x the protesters

Palin's rally on Friday in Alaska drew 1500 protesters nearly twice what showed to support her. This is in ALASKA! and will surely pick up momentum. With her fading popularity and Mccain being seen more and more as a flat-out liar, Obama's strategy of non-aggressive, talk about the issues approach is beginning to work.

This is a weak attempt at making a point. A blogger? None of those pictures portray the massive numbers of protesters mentioned in your above post OR the blog. Palin is not suffering from fading popularity. She remains a strong force for the republican ticket.

I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman!

While bloggers are biased it doesn't mean their camera is or their video. Here is a better link:

Talk about the issues? Are you serious? It has been a smear campaign since day 1, I'm still waiting for Obama's stance on the issues and he has been running for 9 months.

I actually think that his energy plan is a nice thoguth. It should be one of the dozens of things that should be done to help out. But simply swapping barrells of oil without increasing production ro reducing consumption would have a small short term effect, or it would drastically reduce our supply which is beyond very bad.
Clean coal? Straight out of the republican playbook, bravo...

There is some good stuff in there, perhaps he should be campaigning based on that instead of pure smear tactics. But moreso then that, what I gathered from skimming his blueprint for change is that OH MY GOSH is that expensive. The richest 2% will not not be able to support all the extra money he is looking to spend. There goes the middle class.

appreciate that you seem to have taken the time to read the link. You ight be the first conservative over here that has done that. But do you really think it is Obama that is running the smear campaign? Mccain is repeatedly being called out for his blatant lies even to the point that Karl Rove has come out and said that he has gone beyond what is reasonable. Rove! Yes Rove said that.

Yes, I honestly believe that it has been nothign but smear. His WHOLE campaign has been the ambiguous CHANGE, and "I'm not Bush, he is" and inflammatory comments about Palin. I weas serious that I wanted to know abotu his issues, becuase they haven't come out yet. I have not seen one commercial that said "I'm Barrack Obama, and I'm for the use of clean coal"... or antyhign of the nature. Perhaps its the MSM overwhelmingly helpign his smear campaign otu as much as him doing it himself, but until I see soem debates where he actually lays out this plan for change, it has been nothing but smear.
